It's just really sad watching this team.
It's especially sad remembering that we had a young Pacioretty, Price, Subban and 3rd overall pick and completely botched it. Patches at 4.5m, Price at 6.5m, Subban wanted a 6x5 deal but Bergevin and his stupid ego wanted to bridge deal him and it lead to Subban getting the last laugh and then being traded and the development of Galchenyuk, which is both on the player and organization, has been awful. They had a legitimate shot at being real contenders, and they probably were in 2014 until Price's injury. But it all went to waste.
The Subban trade was absolutely the beginning of the downfall though. They chose the wrong guy to be the captain to begin with, and they chose the wrong guy to trade after that historic collapse.
